Narrated Abu Dhar: I reached him (the Prophet ) while in the shade of the Ka`ba; he was saying, “They are the losers, by the Lord of the Ka`ba! They are the losers, by the Lord of the Ka`ba!” I said (to myself ), “What is wrong with me? Is anything improper detected in me? What is wrong with me? Then I sat beside him and he kept on saying his statement. I could not remain quiet, and Allah knows in what sorrowful state I was at that time. So I said, ‘ Who are they (the losers)? Let My father and mother be sacrificed for you, O Allah’s Apostle!” He said, “They are the wealthy people, except the one who does like this and like this and like this (i.e., spends of his wealth in Allah’s Cause).
Hadith In Arabic Text :
حدثنا عمر بن حفص، حدثنا أبي، حدثنا الأعمش، عن المعرور، عن أبي ذر، قال انتهيت إليه وهو يقول في ظل الكعبة ” هم الأخسرون ورب الكعبة، هم الأخسرون ورب الكعبة ” قلت ما شأني أيرى في شىء ما شأني فجلست إليه وهو يقول، فما استطعت أن أسكت، وتغشاني ما شاء الله، فقلت من هم بأبي أنت وأمي يا رسول الله قال ” الأكثرون أموالا، إلا من قال هكذا وهكذا وهكذا ”.
